Machead: I'm one of those yanks who doesn't do well with the Celcius temperature scale so you'll have to do the conversion. At school, for hydro, they recommend 65 degrees F at night to 75 F in the day time. I've pushed it to 80F without any problems but that's why I went back to dirt, it's a...

Norcalking: That's what we had for years, and yes, it works but if you like T-8's you'll love T-5's. For one thing you might find a wider selection of light color/frequencies. HSA

Eside:I wish there was an easier way, but from what you ask, I think you might be new to this so I’d suggest you RTFB and refer to the following: 1. Read: SeeMoreBud’s book, “MARIJUANA BUDS FOR LESS- GROW 8 OZ. OF BUDS FOR LESS THAN $100.” 2. Read: Jorge Cervantes’s...

Trusin: you can use T-5's from seed propagation all the way up to harvest if you have the right color/frequency tubes in it. Try it, you might like it. HSA

Fortheloveofgreen: It looks like an "A+" to me. I hope you logged every move so you can do it again. HSA

James: I've been working with T-5's exclusively from seed propagation to harvest for over a year and I've had very good luck. I use 5,000K's from sprouting to flowering on a progressive light schedule that starts with 20 hours on and 4 off and reduces by one hour per week. When I see...

Krazeo: there are a lot of different ways to skin a cat. The nice thing about having individual pots is that if something bad happens it only happens to one plant. If there's a problem in an interconnected system: pH swing, nutrient lock out, nute burn, an algae bloom, etc., it affects all your...

Chief:I wish there was an easier way, but from what you're doing and asking I’d suggest you RTFB and refer to the following sources: 1. Read: SeeMoreBud’s book, “MARIJUANA BUDS FOR LESS- GROW 8 OZ. OF BUDS FOR LESS THAN $100.” 2. Read: Jorge Cervantes’s book...

Smokeupboys: you might want to take a look at T-5's.

Chief: good luck but you may still be pissing up stream with that one. I hope I'm wrong. HSA

whackbag: what do they look like under a microscope? If more than 50% of your trikes are discolored I'd flush it and harvest it. I hope that helps. HSA

Whatsaroach: I wish there was an easier way, but from what you ask, I think you might be new to this so I’d suggest you RTFB and refer to the following: 1. Read: SeeMoreBud’s book, “MARIJUANA BUDS FOR LESS- GROW 8 OZ. OF BUDS FOR LESS THAN $100.” 2. Read: Jorge...

Smokemupboys: see what your local hydro store has to offer.

Curto: listen to Chrishydro on the back of the hand rule. If it burns your hand it will fry your plants. I have two different brands of T-5 fixtures and they both recommend keeping them 6" to 1' above the tops of my plants but I usually keep them a about two to three inches off the tops with no...

I suppose you could, but why would you want to? Unless you're using a gigantic block of it, it shouldn't get in the way. I've cloned in rock wool and gone to both dirt and hydro without any problem. Just be sure to cover your rock wool or you're bound to have mold problems.

Thc&me: unless I'm mistaken, T-5's are a little more efficient than your T-8's and they burn cool enough to keep them really close without frying your plants. Just make sure you buy a fixture that will completely cover your grow. They don't spread light like MH. As far as your red color is...

Stranger: you might want to try an inch or two of Vermiculite under your dirt to hold the water and attract the roots down. You might also want to consider growing under a ack of T-5's. Just make sure you buy a fixture big enough to completely cover all your grow. It one fixture and one cord and...

Breeder: I change their diet along with the lights. I go from a high N diet to a low N and high P and K formula. HSA

Atuoflower: I wouldn't. I did at first and it wasn't worth the trouble. I found A/G's nutes were too strong for the one or two seedlings you're going to start with and not the right formula to flower with. You've got to remember that the A/G was designed to grow culinary herbs and veggies and...
